Answers to Ear tests 1 - 3

Ear test 1 - 10 intervals.

1 = semitone	2 = tone	3 = tone	4 = semitone	5 = semitone
6 = tone	7 = semitone	8 = tone	9 = semitone	10 = tone

s = semitone, t = tone

1 = - s - s -	2 = - t - s -	3 = - t - t -	4 = - s - t -
5 = - t - t -	6 = - t - s -	7 = - s - s -	8 = - s - t -
9 = - t - t -	10 = - t - s -	11 = - s - s -	12 = - s - t -

Ear test 3 - 8 symmetric scale segments.
(It is not necessary to name the scale tonic notes. They are for reference only.)

1 = D whole-tone	2 = F 8-note dominant	3 = D chromatic	4 = G whole-tone
5 = C 8-note diminished	6 = A chromatic	7 = E 8-note dominant	8 = B whole-tone

Single Items test : C scales

1 = 8-note diminished scale	2 = whole-tone scale
3 = 8-note diminished scale	4 = 8-note dominant scale
5 = whole-tone scale	6 = 8-note dominant scale
7 = whole-tone scale	8 = 8-note dominant scale
9 = 8-note diminished scale	10 = 8-note dominant scale
